    Default Breast implant question-Going larger!

    My question is for those who have breast implants and had them re-done to go larger. For the longest time I have wanted a re-do to go larger. I currently wear a 34C, 34D in some bras. About a year ago I lost about 35 lbs and went from a 36D/DD in some bras to the smaller size that I am now. I weigh 114 lbs now after gaining 10 lbs back this winter. Everyone thinks I am crazy telling me that my breasts are huge as it is but I disagree. My body looks better now after the weight loss but I miss my larger boobs! Every now and then I like my breasts the way they are. They fit my frame but for the most part I want them larger. I don`t want to regret my descision and wind up being unhappy with ridiculous huge breasts! I have already consulted with my surgeon and he recommended 650-700 cc range to get the size that I want. I currently have 400 cc`s with the high profile implants. Anyone go larger and regret it?

    I dont have implants, but I would think that when you go larger or go very large you get those stretch marks. I dont like stretch marks myself, so I would stick with what I had. Just my input.

    I went from an A cup to big DD's.My doc put in 650cc implants and I have no stretch marks whatsoever.The key is to moisturize.I sometimes wish they were even bigger.

    That is another thing..if your skin is very flexible, you can stretch without worrying about stretch marks. I didnt get any stretch marks on my stomach from my daughter, none whatsoever, but I got 3 small ones under my right boob. Ever see those girls with the really horrible stretched out tummys after theyve had kids? Its because they lost the elasticity in their skin. But on breast implants..I dont have em, so its probably better to take others advice there.

    Pregnancy and breast implants are not the same thing.

    So I don't have implants. My wife has 800cc shells overfilled to 1400cc. Over several surgeries. Her first set were filled to 475cc, not sure about shell size. Anyway. After about 500cc, 200cc is pretty much the minimum to see a visible difference in size. Especially from an observer's point of view. So his range recommendation of 650-700 being only a 250-300cc increase is just a good safe bet number that you will bump up a size or 2. It's not exact science with all the body types out there. But that sounds like a really good prediction for going from a C to a D or DD.

    So if you simply want to be the size you were before, I think his recommendation has a high chance of getting you exactly that. If you have any feelings that you may want to be slightly bigger than you were before, then I would simply bump his suggestion up to a range of 750-850.

    My wife had 475cc taking her from a 32B to 32D, then kids which inflated her to something like F or G. Then back down to D. She liked the larger size and we both though going from 475cc to 800cc (Gels this time around) would get her there. Not even close. We were both shocked that going from 475cc to 800cc wasn't nearly the increase we thought it would be.

    So remember 200cc (same as 200 ml) is less than 1 cup (cooking measurement) of saline. 1 cup cooking measurement is 235cc. And then imagine that spread out.

    Just some things to think about. I don't think 650-700cc will give you "ridiculous huge breasts" as it will likely get you to a DD that you were before. And the difference between 650 and 700cc is less than a 1/4 cup of liquid for some perspective. As you get larger, the less effect 50cc has to the size. Think of blowing up a balloon. The first couple blows into the balloon makes a huge difference in size with each blow. As you get larger the less the balloon size changes with each blow. Yet your lung capacity per blow hasn't decreased. It's just spread out over a bigger area.

    while this resurrected thread is 7 years old, the points raised by Xenon2000 are indeed worth keeping in mind. I'll try and make some 'generic' comments ...

    In regard to redo's with larger breast implants, keep in mind that breast implants get larger in all three dimensions, but only the 'thickness' counts towards increased cup size. So for example, if someone's current implants are 400 cc rated and say 1 1/2 inches 'thick', increasing another cup size requires new implants that are 2 inches 'thick' or 33% 'thicker'. But the new implants will also be 20% wider and 20% taller. 400cc * 1.33 * 1.20 * 1.20 = 766 cc. Also, for example, if someone's current implants are 400 cc rated and 1 1/2 inches thick, increasing two cup sizes requires new implants that are 2 1/2 inches 'thick' or 67% thicker. But the new implants will also be 30% wider and 30% taller. 400cc * 1.67 * 1.30 * 1.30 = 1129 cc

    This calculation isn't exact, but it illustrates the general idea ... that achieving a comparatively small increase in 'thickness' = cup size requires a MAJOR increase in overall cc rating.

    Doh! That is what I get for having multiple tabs on "bust" forums. lol. I was looking at another thread I was replying to that was active as of yesterday. Obviously this was not that thread.

    Kind of sad the original poster didn't come back to update everyone on what they ended up doing. If anything at all.
